easy peasy lemon squeezy

Am off to a 1st birthday party with Lily & George, so thought I'd show the wrapped presents that we're taking along. A little something for birthday boy's older brother - a dinky toy car wrapped in a mini fish furoshiki, using a 1 knot basic wrap. For the main man's present - a book, a Thomas the Tank Engine toy & a card wrapped up in a medium lime crinkle furoshiki, using the 2 knot four leaf wrap. Total wrapping time about 2mins - no sticky tape, no tearing, no scissors, no waste. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!!

Looking forward to tea & cakes.

Tickled Pink

We're tickled pink about our latest collection of furoshiki available on Etsy. Delicious delights from raspberry ripple to the liquorice allsorts looking circle line print. Bold abstract florals and opulent purple bouquets. Explosive pink & purple chrysanthemums and fading purple to pink tie dye effects.

Wonderful Waves

New on Etsy, is our ocean themed story, a fabulous collection of waves, sea & seaweed, puffer fish & hanko stamp bubbles! Prices range from US$3 for a mini 'Fish at Sea' furoshiki to US$30 for a 'Wonderful Waves' set of 6 furoshiki.

The set of 6 includes 5 gift wrapping cloths which you can share with friends & family and a gorgeous reversible wave & sea print bag sized furoshiki that you can keep just for you. We've only got limited stock of these, so hurry, hurry, hurry!!

Cute canvas prints

Some news from Down Under - sorry, it's been a while since my last post. I am on the countdown to the baby's arrival - only 4wks to go!! Decided it was probably time to de-pink the room from when Lily had it as a nursery, so have hung some of our screen printed animal prints on the walls (you can buy small canvases at most craft shops and all you need then is a staple gun to secure the furoshiki to the back of the frame). The finished pictures are very lightweight, so a simple plastic picture hook will suffice, no need to add wire, etc to hang, just balance the frame directly on the hook. Easy jungle fun for everyone!
